Well, that too.

Took a while for people to start feeling sorry for you. But eventually people did, and cast pity votes for a multi-door.

Hey, that's not all bad. It was that my pedestrian 'Cat was a few thousands quicker in the quarter than my girlfriend's Turbo S that made her buy a Redeye.

My Durango's price increased by thousands after ordering it late last year, but that didn't surprise me. Heck, everything I buy costs more, in some cases a whole lot more, than it did just two years ago. Try buying a basic flatbed trailer, for example. Again, I'm not surprised. You can't keep...

Yeah, that's why I always wait until the others have started shooting when we have qualifying classes. Kinda upsets their concentration for some reason. Although, generally I cheat and bring the 8-3/8" barrel one. It makes a lot less noise, but at three yards the barrel is almost touching the...

Far from it. It was a Blazer, and it was missing the hood, intake manifold, and other bits. That gave the smoke from the crankcase an easy way out. Yep, especially the 4-inch version I used. Was trying to hit the still intact bowtie in the grille, but never did.

First time out plinking with my .44 Mag I put a bullet through the front of a Chevy smallblock. That impressed and scared me. Scared because smoke started coming out from the engine, and I did not want to start a brush fire.

I could try, but they're valve covered up.

Sorry, it still has the same 18 miles on it as when I picked it up. And it would have to be trailered to Florida, too. I just know it wouldn't go there voluntarily.

Umm, don't you have some other not so great weather attributes there? And that you can't see your neighbors could be because it's dark, and they're black?

Exactly why my cars aren't going to Florida. Aside from the risk of theft, I don't want them flooded, blown away by some hurricane, or gnawed on by alligators. If I wanted damage (hail) I'd go visit BULL. At least there the climate would be tolerable and the scenery nice.

That's what grooving irons are for.

Okay, here are some numbers for you, as listed on the registrations/titles. GT AWD: 4,088, with the optional spare tire. 'Cat: 4.353, with the dumb stereo where the spare should be. Redeye: 4.357, w/o anything extra in the trunk. All three are very similarly optioned, except as noted above...

Unless they get infected.

Keep in mind, DGatzby, that first I'll have to drive a long ways to get to a city block. But with a modest 49.1 hp it should get decent mileage.

I realize that you want your car to resemble a taxi, but like Jroc, I think you should consider an RS6 Avant. If nothing else, an alligator and a python would fit comfortably in the back.

Oops, shouldn't have called the 'Cat "fat". Opening today's mail and there was the MSO for the Durango. Friggin' 5,489 lbs. it says. Then again, maybe it's not completely accurate since the "H.P. (SAE)" states a whopping 49.1.

I dunno. Got the title for the GT AWD the other day, but don't remember what it states. Certainly less than the fat 'Cat, especially since mine has 325 lbs. of useless stereo stuff where the spare should live. Now you made me curious. I'll check them tomorrow.

Considering the weights those scales are made to weigh, I wouldn't out too much faith in what they read at such low numbers. Besides, like with gravel pits and such, they're really only interested in the difference between loaded and empty so the calibration is often off by quite a bit. Be...

Makes sense. If they have nothing new to sell, why not concentrate on used cars?
